Cotton candy
Cotton prices remained unchanged at 58,280, with sluggish milling demand still a concern amidst muted global demand for yarn. However, the downside was limited as India's cotton continues to attract strong demand from buyers in countries like Bangladesh and Vietnam. Prospects of improved crops in countries like Australia also contributed to the market sentiment. The International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC) projected increases in cotton-producing areas, production, consumption, and trade for the upcoming 2024-25 season. In India, cotton stocks are expected to decline by nearly 31% in 2023/24, reaching their lowest level in over three decades due to lower production and rising consumption. This decrease in stockpiles is anticipated to constrain exports from the world's second-largest producer, supporting global prices while potentially affecting the margins of local textile companies. India's cotton production for the current season is estimated to be 30.97 million bales, slightly lower than the previous year, while consumption is expected to rise. Additionally, cotton exports from India for the season are projected to increase to 2.20 million bales. Looking ahead to the 2024/25 marketing year, India's cotton production is estimated to decrease slightly to 25.4 million bales due to farmers shifting acreage to higher return crops. However, mill consumption is expected to increase, supported by improving demand for yarn and textiles in major international markets. With the recent reduction in import duty on extra-long staple (ELS) cotton, imports are forecasted to rise. Technically, the cotton market witnessed fresh selling with a significant increase in open interest, indicating potential downward pressure. Support is seen at 58,080, with resistance at 58,520. This technical overview suggests a cautious stance for Cottoncandy, influenced by both demand-supply dynamics and market sentiment.
